I got this buck Wednesday. I had not seen him before on any of my cameras. I had been watching a 6-point that was just too small and young. He left, and I continued watching a little yearling in my feeder pen (she comes back about three times a day), when she alerted to something coming. A few seconds later this guy walked steadily into view from the trees, about 150 yards from the pen. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/11/full-63614-370572-img_4598.jpg) You just never know what's going to show up for the first time.

That’s the beauty of being in the woods. Mother Nature writes her own script.
Congrats on the deer

High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

Great buck. We almost always kill a buck that we have no pictures of and never seen. That is what make it worth going and hoping to see those cruising bucks.

 Congrats on a nice buck! I gave up on trusting trail cameras a few seasons back. It's more fun to not know exactly what is going to walk up, and I've been fooled by that trail camera one time too many. Maybe if I had spent more money on the camera, but I can buy more corn instead.
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

I'm not sure I trust them to show me what's going to happen during the season, but it's fun to look at the pics.

Another one in perhaps millions taken with a Remington Model 700.
Congratulations.

And I found the rifle here. And the primers and powder I reload with.
